Energy Policy Analysis: A Conceptual Framework

Presented in nontechnical terms, this book offers a unique and powerful conceptual framework for analysis of energy technologies (standard and alternative) in terms of their respective dollar costs, environmental costs, and national security costs. Energy technologies examined include coal, nuclear, oil, natural gas, solar, wind, geothermal, hydropower, biomass and biogas, energy conservation and efficiency, ocean power, hydrogen, electric power and transmission, and transportation. This three-point framework allows examination of issues and problems associated with implementation of U.S. energy policies in the context of major social goals (such as growth and equity), with treatment of conflicts and trade-offs between energy development and other social values (such as health and safety, cultural, historical, and aesthetic values). These are the key political issues for policy makers formulating national energy policy and decisions makers implementing it.
Mining Environmental Policy
Comparing Indonesia and the USA
AvMichael S. Hamilton
Inbunden, Engelska, 2017
2 434 kr
Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
Illustrated by a detailed comparative examination of mining regulations and environmental impact assessment (EIA) in the USA (the second largest producer of coal in the world) and Indonesia (the eighth largest and most rapidly growing), this book argues that the degree of policy integration often determines the success or failure in controlling environmental effects of mining operations. Comparison of surface mining regulation in the two countries provides some stark contrasts, some surprising results concerning the diffusion of policy innovations from one country to another, and instances of both policy success and failure. The book provides significant new insights into international relations and comparative environmental policy, particularly as they affect rainforests and biodiversity. It also suggests that if mining environmental policy were to be effectively implemented, the environmental degradation caused need not be permanent.

Nuclear Weapons in the University Classroom
An Interdisciplinary Teaching Reference
AvMichael S. Hamilton,William A. Lindekem. fl.
Häftad, Engelska, 1990
307 kr
Tillfälligt slut
A teaching reference for faculty who want to develop or improve course offerings on nuclear weapons and arms control as part of an interdisciplinary curriculum geared toward undergraduates. The first chapter presents a survey of 75 university courses based on analysis of data gleaned from relevant syllabi up to mid-1987. It assesses the relative degrees of emphasis accorded to technological, political, and ethical issues in existing university course offerings. Findings concerning the frequency of team teaching, guest lectures, and the relationships between multidisciplinary teaching approaches and individual topics (e.g. nuclear ethics, the arms race, strategic doctrine, etc.) are also presented. The second chapter discusses the political science underpinnings of coursework on nuclear weapons and evaluates the extent to which political analysis can contribute to a better understanding of the arms race, arms control, and strategic doctrine. The third chapter looks at the challenges of teaching about nuclear weapons from the perspective of a sociologist, giving special emphasis to how the issues of value choice and cultural awareness can be factored into coursework. The fourth chapter presents a selected unannotated bibliography of over 800 required readings and films, compiled from the 75 syllabi studied in chapter 1. The list itself is broken down into 20 categories and the frequency with which individual texts and films are used is noted.
